Weight loss injections are used to promote weight loss in individuals with obesity or those who are overweight and have a chronic health condition such as high blood pressure. It works by imitating the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) to suppress appetite and should be used in combination with a diet and exercise plan that your Weigh Station provider will create for you. They are given with a recommended dosage of about 2.4 mg, given weekly at our Salem office. Learn more about injections and the benefits of this innovative medication for your weight loss journey!

As men get older, testosterone levels tend to decrease, which is a natural stage of life. This hormone is vital to a man’s well-being and longevity and the male body needs the hormone to function properly. Unfortunately, this decline can lead to diminished sex drive, low energy, reduced muscle mass and more. At The Weigh Station, we are happy to offer men’s hormone replacement therapy that is prescribed and given in the form of injections, pellets, creams, patches or tablets. In addition to relieving your symptoms and increasing your overall quality of life, testosterone replacement therapy offers many additional benefits!

Women enter the phase of menopause when their estrogen and progesterone levels decline. There is no exact age when this occurs, but it most often takes place after your menstrual cycle becomes less frequent before stopping completely. The symptoms associated with menopause may vary, but for some women they can be uncomfortable and include night sweats, mood changes, depression, vaginal dryness, pain with sex and insomnia. At The Weigh Station, we aim to help treat these symptoms with hormone replacement therapy. Not only can it help manage or lessen your symptoms, but also enhance your overall well-being, vitality and feelings of confidence!
